Principal Report-Mr. Olney
- Discussed having more chairs at the graduation ceremony next year.
- The dance was a lot of fun for the kids who attended. There was a big mess in the cafeteria, but it cleaned up quickly. The DJ was awesome. Great set up. Discussed shortening the dance next year.
- Jake’s Unlimited received mixed reviews from students and staff. We will look into other options for next year.
- The Art Department is creating a new Cocopah t-shirt design for next year. The shirts are used for teachers and substitutes. Maybe the APT could sell some of these at the back to school events.
- The School District does not want Cocopah to use the PBIS app, so the APT does not need to look into funding this.
- There are two open spots on the Site Council for next year-6th grade parent and member at large. Please contact Mr. Olney if you are interested in serving on this committee.
- The general fund is getting low. We can increase the funds through tax credits.
